Auction result misses estimated price range
In October 2020 a collector was able to acquire the work Blake Life Mask, 2003 by Patti Smith for USD 1,500.00 (€ 1,287.89). This price was achieved in the auction The Unseen Eye: Photographs from the W.M. Hunt Collection at Christies in New York and was even below the estimate range of USD 3,000.00 – 5,000.00 set by the auction house. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Patti Smith - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work 3 Bll.: Robert’s Slippers – Self Portrait NYC – Jesse with flower, which sold at auction in December 2020 for EUR 4,750.00.
Auktionsergebnis verfehlt die Schätzpreisspanne
Im Oktober 2020 konnte ein Sammler die Arbeit Blake Life Mask, 2003 von Patti Smith für USD 1.500,00 (€ 1.287,89) erwerben. Dieser Preis wurde in der Auktion The Unseen Eye: Photographs from the W.M. Hunt Collection bei Christies in New York erzielt und lag noch unterhalb der von dem Auktionshaus angesetzten Schätzpreisspanne von USD 3.000,00 – 5.000,00. Für andere Arbeiten von Patti Smith mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit 3 Bll.: Robert’s Slippers – Self Portrait NYC – Jesse with flower beobachtet, die im Dezember 2020 für EUR 4.750,00 versteigert wurde.
